 Admin: Update card and container styles to align with the design system.

 Apply 8px border-radius and a consistent `rgb(0, 0, 0, 0.1)` border to
 cards, postboxes, plugin cards, and theme cards. Standardize internal
 padding to 16px for postbox content and headers.

 Update drag-and-drop interactions: replace dashed gray outlines on
 sortable drop zones with theme-color-tinted backgrounds, and restyle
 sortable placeholders with a solid theme-color border and subtle
 background fill.

 Adjust dashboard widget spacing, welcome panel padding, and empty-
 container drop zone styles. Add overflow hidden to plugin and theme cards
 to clip content to the new rounded corners.

 Fixes #64549.
